"Dinosaur Bar-B-Que announced the closure of its Brooklyn location, stating it had become a gathering place for 'friends, families, first dates, celebrations, and plenty of unforgettable nights in Gowanus.'"
"The restaurant thanked the customers, employees, and regulars who supported it through its 15-year journey, emphasizing that 'what really made this place special wasn't just the building. It was the people.'"
"Dinosaur Bar-B-Que traces its roots back to 1983, when founder John Stage and his partners began serving food from a mobile concession stand at biker rallies and festivals."
"Over the years, Dinosaur became known not only for its slow-smoked ribs, brisket, and pulled pork, but also for the unusual buildings it called home, transforming industrial spaces into beloved restaurants."
Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is set to close its Brooklyn outpost after 15 years in Gowanus, as the lease expires and the building will be demolished for apartments. The restaurant, which has been a significant part of New York's food culture since 1983, announced the closure on social media, emphasizing its role as a community gathering place. The company has not confirmed the final service date but will update customers. Dinosaur is known for its unique locations and traditional Southern barbecue techniques.
